Olympic Wardrobe Malfunctions Gave More to the World than Just Athletic Action

We all look forward to the Olympics not for what the athletes will wear but because of the actual games. We want to see the best of human capabilities. However, it is inevitable at times to really focus on what they are wearing. Some Olympic outfits are quite ridiculous. Worse, we have even witnessed athletes who have suffered from Olympic wardrobe malfunction that was seen by the rest of the world, as this is the biggest sporting event.

This Norwegian runner seemed to have worn a tighter than usual track outfit that it popped in the worst possible area as they were heading towards the finish line.

This Olympic speed skater suffered from an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction as she was celebrating her performance.

This swimmer suffered from a wardrobe malfunction as the butt area popped wide open at the start of the race. It couldn’t get any worse than that.

This moment didn’t happen to one of the athletes but to a journalist from BBC covering the 2012 London Olympics as the wind blew her skirt up.

During the 2014 Sochi Olympics, this Chinese figure skater had an issue with her stockings. She continued the performance though as if nothing happened.

This Spanish diver was caught fixing her swimwear during a diving competition at the Olympics. Divers do it all the time, but during major competitions, cameras follow them, hence this moment happened.

This is obviously an awkward moment for an Olympic cyclist. It pretty much happens to all cyclists due to the nature of their outfit.

Anything can happen in wrestling especially since you are trying to do anything to pin your opponent down. This one is definitely an embarrassing moment.

This happened during a water polo match. The Spanish player showed more to the world than what they deserved.

These are just some of the most awkward moments caught on camera during the games especially with how the outfits were designed.
